How long do you guys spend on making one sig?

I'm just curious

I'm thinking 2-4 hours maybe?

Maybe sometimes, but usually I spend a little longer...not to mention that sometimes it takes awhile to find good pics.

mine usually take 1-2 hours including finding pics. finding pics and the right font seems to be the most time consuming.

Mine was 2-3 hours only because it took a lot of time looking for the right pics and I did a trial and error approach, where i just tried differnt stuff until something looked good.


On average i like to spend 1-2 hours making a sig

It does always take a ton of time to find the right pictures and fonts. Lately while searching for pictures though, if I see a good picture of anyone, I save it to a folder of potential pics to use at a later date.

As for time to make the sig I would say less than an hour. Although I am sure I have taken longer on some because I tend to not like anything I come up with so I tinker a little too much. The most time consuming obviously is cutting out backgrounds but I have been getting better at that thanks to the pen tool.
